The Ballad of Peterpumkinhead
as sung by XTC OR THE CRASH TEST DUMMIES
PETERPUMKINHEAD CAME TO TOWN
SPREADING WISDOM AND CASH AROUND
FED THE STARVING AND HOUSED THE POOR
SHOWED THE VATICAN WHAT GOLDS FOR
BUT HE MADE TOO MANY ENEMIES
OF THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD KEEP US ON OUR KNEES
HOORAY FOR PETER PUMKINHEAD
WHOLL PRAY FOR PETER PUMKINHEAD
OH MY
PETER PUMKINHEAD PULLED THEM ALL
EMPTIED CHURCHES AND SHOPPING MALLS
WHERE HE SPOKE IT WOULD RAISE THE ROOF
PETER PUMKINHEAD TOLD THE TRUTH
BUT HE MADE TOO MANY ENEMIES
OF THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD KEEP US ON OUR KNEES
PETER PUMKINHEAD PUT TO SHAME
GOVERNMENTS WHO WOULD SLUR HIS NAME
PLOTS AND SEX SCANDELS FAILED OUTRIGHT
PETER MERELY SAID
ANY KIND OF LOVE IS ALRIGHT
BUT HE MADE TOO MANY ENEMIES
OF THE PEOPLE THAT WOULD KEEP US ON OUR KNEES
PETER PUMKINHEAD WAS TOO GOOD
HAD HIM NAILED TO A CHUNK OF WOOD
HE DIED GRINNING ON LIVE TV
HANGING THERE HE LOOKED A LOT LIKE YOU
AND AN AWFUL LOT LIKE ME
BUT HE MADE TOO MANY ENEMIES OF THE PEOPLE THAT WOULD KEEP US ON OUR KNEES
HOORAY FOR PETER PUMKINHEAD
WHOOL PRAY FOR PETER PUMKINHEAD
HOORAY FOR PETER PUMKINHEAD
OH MY OH MY OH
DOESNT IT MAKE YOU WANT TO CRY
PETERPUMKINHEAD
